Description

Via Admin -> Website Functions -> Menus -> Some Menu -> "Create menu option"

Name: Test Section
URL: HomePage
Type: section level 0
Position: 20

Result: ! Error
Invalid section:

The same error happens when editing a menu option that already exists. For example, I have just created an example option that is set as:

Name: pickles
URL: HomePage
Type: section level 0
Position: 7

If I edit it and replace URL to "index.php", the same Invalid section: error shows up.

On both, the Section field is blank.

I suspect this is a bug as it is unexpected if one follows documentation found on the Menu topic, such as at: https://doc.tiki.org/MenuQuestion

My environment:
PHP (fpm) 8.5.9
nginx 1.31.3
Linux kernel 7.0.14
